History and ownership
Flipper’s history begins in 1966 in Nauvo, Finland, where Harry Ölander started the boatyard that became the brand. Early Flipper boats established the name in Nordic leisure boating, and the brand became known for Finnish-built fiberglass motorboats with a sporty character. Bella-Veneet Oy later acquired the Flipper name, molds, and rights in 1992, making Flipper part of a larger Finnish boat-building group. The brand’s historical identity is closely tied to Scandinavian design and practical family boating.

Modern Flipper boats are marketed as day cruisers, sport tops, and sport consoles, with current production concentrated in compact to mid-sized leisure boats. The brand’s lineup includes models such as the 640 DC, 700 DC, 900 ST, and related variants in the same family. Flipper boats are typically fiberglass planing craft, built for recreational use and everyday handling rather than offshore specialization. The brand is known for sporty hulls, Scandinavian styling, and layouts aimed at family cruising and social day boating.
